All of these are new to me!

We all wanted to reach this status, but...........now I am here posting on TNET
Actual a few regionals, including '60's Orlando label TENER 45 single which has resurfaced on GEARFAB RECORDS CD-
PSYCHEDELIC STATES-Florida on the "60's Vol 4 #GF 276.
In the "60's, I knew Tom Petty during his MUDCRUTCH days, Duane and Greg when they were the ALLMAN JOYS, Don Felder in the Maudy Quintet, and later in FLOW, a Creed Taylor Records band with of my class of '66 Ocala High School friends, one of which we cowrote the Senior class play that banned and never performed.
Was a member of Rusty Day's CACTUS when he lived in Longwood, Florida- their 6GUN TERRITORRY PARK in Ocala, Florida concert is online.
Later went on to being an independent producer/marketing label/manager as field A&R for a major.
...and as Bob Segar sang, Simon, Turn the page.
PS: I saw the BEATLES, September 11, 1964 at the GATOR BOWL, Jacksonville, Florida along with several of the Florida musicians mention above.
The NIGHTCRAWLERS from Daytona Beach had a minor hit with this song on 1965- a BIG hit in Florida, and every Florida garage band played this song which also provided the impetus-"If the Nightcrawlers can make it, so can we".
Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers did a remake of "Little Black Egg".
Once again can't get this to load?![]()

Yes it is. Thank you.
Well, that's pretty cool! Post some more if you can!![]()
The band that recorded all the SNOOPY songs 45's was from Ocala. I knew most of the members, and Tom Richards came in the local music store with a Dan Armstrong lucite guitar that he played on their second album(like Keith plated at Altamonte) to trade in for a Gibson Les Paul. I immediately bought that guitar, being used at half price, and still have it. Tom died at a young age from a brain tumor.
I was asked by the bass player to join a "has been" version of the band, but declined-not my style of rock.

Some people considered Royal Guardsmen as rock.
The Posmen.
Congratulations on a guitar with history
